A: But it's the White House. The president and his family live there.They won't let us see most of it. Probably we can only see a couple of rooms.

B: No, that's not true.The White House is very big. And there are a lot of historical exhibits there.The tour will take us through many different rooms. I read about it in the guide.

A: Hmm. If that's true, then the security there must be very good.Because it's strange to think they will let people walk around in the White House.

B: I'm sure the security is very tight.Probably they will make us walk through metal detectors like at the airport.

A: So I can't take my gun then.

B: Don't always joke like that! You don't have a gun.

A: Yes, it's true I don't.

B: You shouldn't say things like that. You could get arrested!

A: What? Do you think someone will arrest me for making a joke?Someone will arrest me here at the breakfast table?

B: No. But if you say something like that in the White House,they may take it seriously. Sometimes I think you joke too much.

A: I'll be careful. Don't worry. I don't want to get arrested by the FBI.But how long does the White House tour last?

B: I'm not sure. I think it lasts about one hour.

A: Alright. We should take a taxi over there right after breakfast.

B: First I want to look in the travel guide.Maybe they don't have tours in the morning.

A: That's a good idea. Do you want some more coffee?

B: No, I'm fine.
